As usual Mr H is already 12 steps ahead of the game. His new ideas include:-
1) Allowing Military secrets to be disclosed under RTI 2) Allowing National Security secrets to be disclosed via RTI 3) Allowing details of politicians and other people running for "public office" to be disclosed via RTI. Now it would be very sweet if Mr H formally proposed all this to the Standing Committee on behalf of the CIC. Instead we find he proposes all this to a "hottie" (see photo) and shoots his load all over her broadsheet. <--- Joke of the day for RTI activists. http://www.livemint.com/2008/11/12230327/Using-RTI-Act-to-usher-in-chan.html Sarbajit --- In [email protected], "Milap Choraria" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Standing Committee on Personnel, Public Grievances, Law And Justice > Inviting the Suggestions on Implementation of RTI Act 2005 > > Dear Friends, > > In today's Newspapers an advertisement is published on behalf of the > Standing Committee on Personnel, Public Grievances, Law And Justice > Inviting the Suggestions on Implementation of RTI Act 2005. > > We do hope that object of the examining Explore the Merits, Short > comings, Use/Misuse of the Act which may necessitate amendments if > necessary, in the Right to Information Act 2005, is to strengthen the > implementation of the Act.
